If you need your weekly dose of Essex goss, you're in luck, as TOWIE is back and we're excited to see all the drama unfold. One thing that TOWIE's Harry Derbidge is known for, besides being an OG cast member, is sharing his flawless make-up looks on TikTok and Instagram.
In fact, Harry recently shared his go-to beauty routine that he loves to wear when filming, and we instantly spotted some firm beauty favourites. One standout is much more affordable than you'd think, and the budget beauty buy has been hailed as a cult-classic.
We all know the importance of using a really good primer, especially when it comes to wanting your make-up to look fresh and stay firmly in place. Harry began by prepping his skin with the e.l.f. Power Grip Primer, £9.05 and said: "I've never believed in a primer so much in my life."

e.l.f.You might've seen this gel-based primer all over your TikTok FYP, and it's for good reason. Designed to create a super tacky base, this beauty must-have grips your make-up to your skin for the ultimate, long-lasting finish.
Let's be honest, we're already sold.
Harry went on to say that this primer has been a 'godsend' and a 'game-changer' while vacationing in Thailand, as it made his makeup last so well in the heat. We're definitely taking notes and adding this to our baskets before summer hits...
It's not just Harry, either. The primer has quickly become a fave with reviewers calling it the 'best primer ever', and another even dubbing it 'magic in a bottle.' One comment read, 'This primer gives my makeup such a strong grip and helps it stay in place all day without sliding off or fading.'
This viral primer has been hailed as the go-to alternative for the iconic Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Primer, £18, a TikTok fave that has been praised to not only deeply hydrate but to prolong your make-up look for up to 12 hours.
Both primers are super comparable as they are jam-packed with the skin-loving ingredient of hyaluronic acid, which attracts and floods the skin full of moisture, leaving the skin looking super plump and juicy. What's not to love?
